CAB

 

Damn, if I'd have known there was going to be an exclusive
club we'd have never sold the one we drug out of the woods
in eastern Ohio this summer.

 

I would love to see an update on this one.

 

Oh boy.. finally a club I can join

 

I'm in

 

Thanks for the kind words Weemark!
It's always nice to see another '35 on this thread, they seem to be more on the rare side
Glad the book is working out for ya, it has some useful stuff in it.

I haven't hopped up the motor yet, still wanting to get some heads for it first. But this is what i have waiting to be mounted on the flatty some day. I just hate to change anything on it because it runs so good as a four barrel with no problems at all



Thanks to Duane (strombergs97) here on the Hamb, it's sporting these nice rebuilt 97's!

 

steve - the intake and carbs look real nice, they will suit the car down to the ground. funnily enough i just picked up a pair of those scoops to go on the roadster once its done too.

I have changed the filters on the coupe to the same as yours so when another pair come up i jumped at the chance of having them.. you dont see them for sale over here very often

 

Weemark that front view of your car is amazing. I like the chromed headlights.

I like those scoops you guys are using alot.

Here is the stuff I have for my engine.



I have these scoops but I only have 3 so I think I am just going to use bell style filters.

 

Wow, this is 3 pages already and I just found it. I must be slipping! Hahaha

I see a few new faces. Awesome.

Part of the fleet


The 5 window in ‘64.


Repainted in ‘64. Buffed out in ‘07.






Dad’s 3 window




Me and Dad with my cabriolet.


At the Pileup last year


The 4 door


Not pictured is a frame that was clipped with a Nova subframe 20 years ago. I don't know what we'll ever do with it, but Dad doesn't sell '36 stuff... ever. I think he wants to build a truck out of it, but like I said, we've had it for 20 years.

I just got some rear steel '35 coupe fenders that I would love to trade someone for some '36 rear coupe fenders.

Big changes in store for the 4 door and the 3 window this winter. If it all comes together, the 4 door will go on the 3 window chassis and the 3 window is getting a new chassis with a 302 (instead of the current 305, and hopefully shiny paint). THe 59AB that resides in the 4 door will most likely go into the cabriolet in place of the stock '37 flatty. When you only like 1 year and make of car, it makes everything much easier. hahaha!

Oh yeah, forgot the '35 Bonneville coupe that we are building at the shop.

 

Oh yeah, Weemark, when did you change your wheels? That looks bad ass. Any pics of the whole car?

 

myke thanks for the compliments, theyve been like that for about 6 years now and they are still like the day I got them, the guys who done it made a really good job of them.

chad i changed them about 3 months ago now, end of summer really. i was needing the change tbh... had the wheels in the garage for near on 2 years before i got around to painting them. any more pics of your bonneville car?

here are some more pics, sorry theyre a bit on the large side...

 

That looks so good! I think I am going to have to run blackwalls on the 4 door now for sure.

We haven't really done much of anything to the Bonneville car except for some patch panels and parts collecting. Customer work comes first.

I've got skirts for the cabriolet. I feel like I *should* make it taildragger cause none of the rest of them are. But then everytime I see another car with that killer stance as above, and they I think, why would I ever want a taildragger? Good thing I've got a few years before the cabrio even sees the light of day.

 

I had a similar thought with my car. Why not try a taildragger? So I lowered it a ton and put skirts on it, and ran it that way for six months or so, but I felt like an imposter when I drove it -- too foreign to the style of cars I grew up with. So it got raised back up some before I sold it:

 

50fraud - your car was always one of my favourites, always thought it sat just right.

 

Thank you! I can say the same about yours; probably the nicest '35 5W I've seen.

 

Weemark,
your ride's looking really good with that intake and the hood off ...nice!
your right about those scoops, very hard to find
I've been able to come up with four.

Django,
looks like your family has a soft spot for the year 1936, awesome collection

DirtyDan,
Very clean indeed ...i like it!

1oldtimer,
Can't wait to see your on the road, keep us updated on the progress.

myke,
Nice start, keep us updated.

Kenny,

squigy,

Rusty Rod,

Tetanus Shot,
too bad your selling her, she's sweet.

Irish Mike,
Gotta love them 3 windows, hope we can park together someday at a future show!

scootermcrad,
I dig your ride, i have a bunch of your photos saved in one of my 36/36 folders.

Retrorod,
Driving your car is a good thang ...welcome.

 

Might as well throw my beater into the mix........one of these days I have to finish the cosmetics and some paint. I use the excuse that I still don't have any original headlights for it yet so I can't do any more on it........but I just like to drive it.

 

Hmmmm....other like minded maniacs...I'm in.

 

dude i'm in.

 

Count me in. I am building a Boattail Roadster, body by Fairlane Co. with a DuVal windshield. sectioned 3.5 inches, very sleek. No pix right now but will get some together.

 

Hey, Keith!
I have only ever seen one of those boattails as a completed car; it was at Back To The 50s in Minnesota around 1990. I look forward to seeing your new one!
Tony Miller

 

Tony, I saw the same car and a few years later bought the tooling for it. I have lengthened the doors for better proportions and will make a few other changes to sweeten the look. Half way through building a '28 modified and than the Boattail gets back on the center burner. Keith

 

Here are a couple from my past. I have a real affinity to '35's and '36's. The orange one was my first build. Apparently in Minnesota now.
The silver one is the one I should never have let get away. Just an all around awesome car. Sold it to a jerk-off in Illinois. I saw it in the most recent Goodguys magazine. I kick myself to this day and it's been 6 years since I sold it.

 

I'm in. I've had my 5 window for over 10 years. Right now it's in the middle of a major makeover.

 

I take it this is a ford only zone?

 

Add me to the list.

 

Dang wish I had a ford instead of this ole chevy
